About this item

This is a sett gauge or a ‘Wraps per Inch' gauge. Fibre artists, spinners, yarn lovers, knitters and weavers will all know what it’s for. For those who don’t know, it’s a little tool to help measure what gauge your yarn will knit to. The number of times your chosen yarn wraps around the gauge tells you Wraps per Inch (wpi) of the yarn. Armed with that information, you'll be able to choose which pattern to use for yarn already in your stash. The gauge has a one inch measure as well as a half inch one for lightweight yarns (double the count of course, before consulting the chart) and it comes with a fabric lanyard and it's in a velvety pouch. I’ll also include with the gauge, a wpi chart for different weights of yarn The stunning yarn shown in the photograph is not included! The gauges pictured are about 6" (150mm) long, are made from different woods and the pictures are numbered. If you have a preference, please tell me when you order. Numbers 1 and 3 are now sold. My postage rate includes for first class recorded delivery
